Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released during a period of intense political repression and the exile of her Tropic谩lia peers, the Brazilian vocalist delivered a fiercely defiant, fuzz-drenched psychedelic masterpiece. Blending heavy, blues-inflected acid rock with frenetic traditional rhythms, the incredibly eclectic recording captures the raw, subversive energy of the Brazilian countercultural underground.
